OSU GS Geodynamic Program 1988


OSU Geodetic Survey is very active in geodynamics program. In 1988 a report "Basic research for geodynamics program (at OSU)" was prepared for NASA by GS Dept. Report by Ivan I Mueller covers activity from July 1, 1987 through June 30, 1988.

Among the activities covered were;

1. Earth Rotation Parameter Determination from Different Space Geodetic Systems
2. Utilization of Range-Difference Observations in Geodesy
3. An Algorithm for Crustal Deformation Analysis
4. Orbit Determination for the Global Positioning System of Satellites
5. Reference Frames for Geodynamics

Among the publications as research outcome were;

1. Further Considerations on Combining Earth Rotation Observations from Different Space Geodetic Systems, Bulletin Geodesique, 1988.
2. Baseline Estimation with Semidynamic and Geometric Satellite Methods, Bulletin Geodesique, 1988 or 1989.
3. Orbit Determination for the Global Positioning System Satellites, First Quarterly Status Report, January, 1988
4. Reference Coordinate Systems: An Update, Proc. International Summer School of Theoretical Geodesy on Theory of Satellite Geodesy and Gravity Field Determination, May 23-June 3,1988, Assisi, Italy
